3 stars Retrospectable - Supertramp's music from early period to the final studio album they released in 2002. This is a really good double CD compilation gathering all the hits band had over the years from bluesy moments of the first album going through the mid to late '70's when Supertramp were huge having releasing timeless classics tunes like The Logical Song or the title track Breakfast in America among others. This is a good compilation for a begginer, this way anyone can judhe , listen their music, how thy evolved and decrise over the years. Definetly a 3 star worth for sure. I myself I was very pleasent surprised, even is more then 2 hours of music. From all the pieces the ones from Breakfast in America or the ones from Even in the quest moments are the best period for the band, IMO. I was not been impressed , even I know the album for years but Crime of the century is a pale release in comparation with their most diverse and solid album from 1979 Breakfast in America. Their combination of melodic elements, piano arrangements and here and there progressive moods make from Supertramp a well known band over the years, respected by many listners, even the most pretencious ones. All in all, if you want to check some of Supertramp music from the begginig of their career to the last release they offer so far from 2002 this is pretty intristing stuff to be check out. 3-3.5 for sure.
